The 5K, our main event, is Oklahoma's fastest and most famous road 5K. It is home of the Oklahoma male and female 5K records, set by Aron Rono, 13:51, in 2010 and Diana Chemtai, 15:28, in 2017. The race has a $7,600 prize purse and attracts the most talented field of elite runners of any road race in the state, but several hundred runners and walkers of all abilities are expected to enjoy following the elites to the finish. A separate division is available for wheelchair athletes.
